It’s intended to be a starting point for discussions on the Project Lambda mailing list which will, hopefully, lead to the formulation of a detailed proposal and a prototype implementation.
- Tichy 17y agoMissed that, thanks. Might have been clearer if they had labeled it "starting point for discussion" rather than straw man. I am not sure if redefining the whole Java language completely is really useful. Why not just switch to another language entirely. Perhaps it would be more useful to improve support for functional languages in the Java VM. But Java itself can only get worse by piling even more syntax options on top of it.
